    I absolutely adore Santa Cruz. The boardwalk is insane. I also love the mystery spot. I have been there three times and I still can’t understand it.

    Fun! I’m 4th generation Santa Cruz. My great-grandfather did the concrete for the carousel and the Giant Dipper over 100 years ago. My uncle designed the Giant Dipper sign found on the roller coaster. The weather is temperate here and the seashore and redwoods are pretty amazing… it’s hard to leave!

      Yes! When I bartended at the Lodge in 2001. I wasn’t aware of the history of the place at the time. It was eerie, and fascinating at the same time. I now work in the market and a few times things have flown off the shelf. ✌️

    The 5:11 statue gets decorated seasonally. I think they put a pumpkin on his head in the Autumn and stuff. Surprised you caught him without the lei he has on; maybe most of the year.

  • @alm2187

    Mystery Spot is no one optical illusion. It's a gimmick. Optical illusions may be in play from room to room, though, such as when the relative height of two people appears to change when they swap positions on a seemingly level surface.
    Largely; figure it's all just trick architecture. Everything's built so objects will swing, roll, or fall counterintuitively.
    One telling point: Knott's Berry Farm is a number of hours' drive from there. It's a theme park replete with rides and costume characters. One feature is a cabin (with the neighboring structures) with tricksy aspects similar to those of The Mystery Spot.

    Bigfoot is probably just a myth and the mystery spot is def an illusion. Still both are very entertaining

      My wife and I owned a home in Scotts Valley for 16 years. We left when we could no longer understand our neighbors, most were from the middle East and spoke little English. Our neighborhood was called Oak Creek, mostly engineers, they made incomes to afford the homes.
